I completely agree. It also forces better commit messages, because "maintaining the history of each PR" is forced into prose written by the person responsible for the code instead of hand-waving it away into "just check the c

This is the second time in just a few weeks I see a post from some UX person complaining about how some major tech company doesn't "understand" design while themselves having a design that is absolutely abysmal. What made thi

While it's cool, something about vanity keys in general stroke me the wrong way. I feel like in principle you should never use a very short part of a public key for ocular identification, and it attempts to solve something that should

You’re hand-waving, not stating causality when it has not been confirmed is basic journalism and is standard practice in all serious media outlets regardless of what parties are involved.

Boot environments are awesome but it’s worth reading up on what is _not_ included in the snapshot. It’s really only the ”base system” and a rollback will keep whatever is in /var, /home and many other directories, so it’s good to

What a ridiculous statement. By your logic, anyone with alzheimer’s got it from eating sugars and carbs and simply didn’t choose to avoid it. Sugars and carbs also keep you alive. Please keep your mortality neurosis to yourself.

I continue to be unimpressed by LLMs when it comes to creative work, they're certainly useful sometimes for "reference digging", but maybe I just don't understand enough about how they work and this is actually something

It's "cool" but in terms of usability I think it's terrible. I would think that someone who works full time as a designer and has strong opinions on right and wrong would think twice about wasting screen real estate on m
